The multi-target multi-camera tracking and person re-identification challenge is canceled. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused."
+- June 2: The [Duke MTMC dataset](/datasets/duke_mtmc) website ([vision.cs.duke.edu/DukeMTMC](http://vision.cs.duke.edu/DukeMTMC)) has abruptly gone blank. An archive from April 18 is still available on the Wayback Machine ([web.archive.org/web/20190418085103/http://vision.cs.duke.edu/DukeMTMC/](https://web.archive.org/web/20190418085103/http://vision.cs.duke.edu/DukeMTMC/))

-- May 31: Semantic Scholar appears to be censoring citations used in this project. Two of the citations linking the [Brainwash](/datasets/brainwash) dataset to research from the National University of Defense Technology (NUDT) in China have disabled. [NUDT citation 1](https://www.semanticscholar.org/paper/A-Replacement-Algorithm-of-Non-Maximum-Suppression-Zhao-Wang/591a4bfa6380c9fcd5f3ae690e3ac5c09b7bf37b), [NUDT citation 2](https://www.semanticscholar.org/paper/Localized-region-context-and-object-feature-fusion-Li-Dou/b02d31c640b0a31fb18c4f170d841d8e21ffb66c), and the [original paper](https://www.semanticscholar.org/paper/End-to-End-People-Detection-in-Crowded-Scenes-Stewart-Andriluka/1bd1645a629f1b612960ab9bba276afd4cf7c666) show that the NUDT citation has been censored (see references)
-- May 28: The [Microsoft Celeb](/datasets/msceleb) (MS-Celeb-1M) face dataset website is now 404 and all the download links were deactivated. It appears that Microsoft Research has shuttered access to their MS Celeb dataset. Yet it remains available, as of writing this, on [Imperial College London's website](https://ibug.doc.ic.ac.uk/resources/lightweight-face-recognition-challenge-workshop/) and on <https://msropendata.com/datasets/98fdfc70-85ee-5288-a69f-d859bbe9c737>
